The Red Cross Movement took roots
in this country in 1948. In 1957, the Society was established as the Federation
of Malaya Red Cross Society and with the formation of Malaysia in 1963,
the Malaysian Red Cross Society was in-corporated by Act of Parliament.
In 1975, a change of name and symbol took place and the Society is known
as the Malaysian Red Crescent Society.
Today, the Red Crescent symbol is
by far the most recognised among all the voluntary organisations. Perhaps
it is the most influential voluntary organisation in this country. this
is due to the fact that the Movement is built on a clear meaningful idea
with powerful universal appeal - the concept of alleviating suffering and
saving lives, regardless of race, colour or creed. This purposeful concept
is driven by highly efficient support system and implemented by people
who are motivated, dedicated and professional.
